Hubby art







Paul has just finished his first table. It's a worktable for our son (I hope he will study hard and not hardly...) The table is made out of old deck boards which he bought at a company specialized in recycling. The boards come from an old farmer's house. As you can see they have marks from wood worms. (The worms are dead though!) Paul abraded, cut the boards in the right size and made a mortice so he could joint them together. (He was so happy and in a productive work flow...)

I sat at the table the other day and because Paul has treated it with beeswax it smells a kind of sweet and pleasant. By the way: The next table is already under construction and should become a dining table...

Hereafter some pictures when we bought the boards (I call it a man's Ikea...)





On this occasion my heartfelt thanks to you all for welcoming me back to the world of bloggers and for the good wishes for my son! You are all a huge encouragement to keep on posting!

A lovely and very dear present











Many years ago I received these two figures from Paul. He had created them himself. They enchanted me so much then and they still do until this day. Look at all the details: The lovely collar and and the little dress with the trendy dots, the little ballerina shoes of the bubbly girl, the checked shorts, the red sweatervest with the checkerboard pattern, the belt and the brown shoes with the funny shoestrings of 
the self-confident, sporty boy. I dare say in a way they resemble Paul and me...

They hang inside my wardrobe very patiently since years 
and say hello and smile each time I open the door.

Certainly their smile will make you smiling for a moment as well!
